Launch TejashCAM and click on Start Camera to, well, start your webcam. Once you do so, whatever your webcam “sees” will be displayed on TejashCAM’s interface so you can easily capture it. All you have to do is click the Capture button and TejashCAM will take a screenshot. By default, TejashCAM will save the screenshot on your desktop; it will save it as a BMP file and give it a random name, like RXNDUKUQIH for example.

TejashCAM is portable software. To get it up and running, you won’t have to install it. What you will have to do is download an archive, extract its contents, and run the TejashCAM executable.

The main panel on TejashCAM’s interface displays whatever your webcam sees. Underneath this main panel there are buttons to start and stop the camera, take a screenshot, open the Help documentation, and access the Settings menu (from it you can select a video device, play with device settings like brightness and contrast levels, and access camera controls like zoom, focus and exposure). And underneath these buttons there’s a section that lets you enable the image preview feature, pick a custom location to store screenshots, and open that custom location.

I don’t have a webcam connected to my work PC. So to test TejashCAM and see if it works as advertised, I turned to DroidCam for help. By installing the DroidCam client on my PC and the DroidCam app on my Android smartphone I was able to turn said smartphone into a webcam for my PC. Watch the Quick Look video that accompanies this article to see how that worked out.

Pros TejashCAM does not have to be installed; this software application for Windows is portable. There first time you run TejashCAM, you will be asked to view the Help documentation. Select a video device, launch it, and take screenshots. TejashCAM is free software.
